[Redbook2:306][19831024:1000]{A
Dream: Officer Commanding}[24th
October 1983]
19831024:1000
Some
days ago I had a detailed 'narrative' type dream in which I was the
officer commanding two sub-units of the same unit (regiment?) –
associated in my mind with my [former]
T.A. regiment, although this seems unlikely*. Unfortunately the
details may have gone; but I had first to go up a hill into a
devastated night-time(?) semi-urban area ahead of the main body, and
stand to meet them as they came up in two long lines for dispersal
(then I think we may have moved forward).
At
a later stage it was Winter and the line was stuck in slit trenches
in the snow, on the semi-urban plateau; there was danger that they
would freeze there, and I had to go to them and inspire them to
advance successfully, which I recall doing – I believe with
success.
An
unusual and intensely realistic dream: it was like a selection of
someone's experience: it felt real, and to a considerable extent it
felt whole.
*[Unlikely,
presumably, within the dream framework, since it was so extremely
unlikely in waking life as to be not worth remarking.]
